High-Performance airmax Bridge Models: NBE M5-19, NBE-M5-16 Uniform Beamwidth Maximizes Noise Immunity Innovative Mechanical Design High-Speed Processor for Superior Performance
Overview Application Examples Starting with the first-generation NanoBridge, Ubiquiti Networks pioneered the all-in-one design for an airmax product functioning as a CPE (Customer Premises Equipment). Now Ubiquiti Networks launches the latest generation of CPE, the NanoBeam. PtMP Client Links Improved Noise Immunity The NanoBeam directs RF energy in a tighter beamwidth. With the focus in one direction, the NanoBeam blocks or spatially filters out noise, so noise immunity is improved. This feature is especially important in an area crowded with other RF signals of the same or similar frequency. Integrated Design The Ubiquiti Research and Development team combined the radio and antenna to create a more efficient and compact CPE. The NanoBeam gets maximum gain out of the smallest footprint. The NanoBeam used as a CPE device for each client in an airmax PtMP network. PtP Link Wireless Client Providing increased performance from its faster processor and innovative mechanical design at a low cost, the NanoBeam is extremely versatile and cost effective to deploy. The NanoBeam as a powerful wireless client. airmax TDMA Technology This time slot method eliminates hidden node collisions and maximizes airtime efficiency. It provides significant performance improvements in latency, throughput, and scalability compared to all other outdoor systems in its class. Long Distance Capable of high speed, carrier-class links. Timeline Time Slot 4 Scalability High capacity and scalability. Time Slot 1 Intelligent QoS Priority is given to voice/video for seamless streaming. Use a NanoBeam on each side of a PtP link. Time Slot 3 Unlike standard Wi-Fi protocol, Ubiquiti s Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) airmax protocol allows each client to send and receive data using pre-designated time slots scheduled by an intelligent AP controller. Time Slot 2 airmax Technology Included VOIP VOIP Data VOIP Time Slots Packet Prioritization Up to 100 airmax stations can be connected to an airmax Sector; four airmax stations are shown to illustrate the general concept. 2
airos is an intuitive, versatile, highly developed Ubiquiti firmware technology. It is exceptionally intuitive and was designed to require no training to operate. Behind the user interface is a powerful firmware architecture, which enables high performance, outdoor multi point networking. Software Protocol Support Ubiquiti Channelization Spectral Width Adjustment ACK Auto-Timing AAP Technology Multi-Language Support Integrated on all Ubiquiti M products, airview provides advanced spectrum analyzer functionality: waterfall, waveform, and real-time spectral views allow operators to identify noise signatures and plan their networks to minimize noise interference. Waterfall Aggregate energy over time for each frequency. Waveform Aggregate energy collected. Real-time Energy is shown in real time as a function of frequency. Recording Automate airview to record and report results. aircontrol is a powerful and intuitive, web-based server network management application, which allows operators to centrally manage entire networks of Ubiquiti devices.

Hardware Overview Innovative Mechanical Design All-in-one design The NanoBeam provides both the radio and antenna in the smallest possible footprint. Quick and easy installation No fasteners are required for pole-mounting, and a single wall fastener (not included) is required for wall-mounting. Convenient alignment The NanoBeam pivots on its ball joint for easy aiming. Compact Form Factor Efficient footprint The radio and antenna are combined into a single body that takes up minimal space. Versatile mounting The NanoBeam can be mounted in almost any position needed for line of sight. Aesthetics The NanoBeam is small enough to blend discreetly into the background at a customer's location.
